I was giving my boyfriend oral sex( a blowjob) and once he came there was a bit of semen on my hands, i didn’t directly get up i don’t recall how dry my hands were at this point but i got a phone call so i picked it up then i fixed my clothes up a bit, put on my jacket, then when i went to the bathroom i spaced out on washing my hands before i fixed up my undies and peed and cleaned myself after with toilet paper. I don’t know how close my hands would’ve gotten to my vaginal opening, and i don’t know how dry the sperm on my hands was by then, i’d say by the time i touched my vagina/ vaginal opening or came very near to it around 1-5 minutes have passed, im panicking, and i can’t what so ever get pregnant im still so young and im a virgin. please help, can dry or half dry semen in this scenario get me pregnant?

Hi there, whatdoido.

This is absolutely not a way pregnancy can occur. You can relax.

For pregnancy to be a real possibility (outside things like IVF in a lab), there needs to be DIRECT contact between a vulva or vagina and a penis. Sperm cells are super delicate, and the fluids they come with are needed both to keep them viable and to help even get them to the cervical opening in the first place, so moving traces of semen around like this, and then having whatever even was there dry up just isn't a way a person can become pregnant.

Happy to answer any additional questions you have after reading those pieces. <3

Hey, just need further clarification to ease my mind. So even if the semen hadn’t dried out completely and was still wet while it was on my hands and came in very close contact to my vaginal opening, you’re saying there is no way it could get me pregnant whatsoever right?

Were you able to read the links I gave you? If not, how about you do that first -- they both address this -- and then we can talk some more if you're still unclear.
